About CarOffer

Buying a car
shouldn't mean
endless scrolling.

CarOffer flips the classifieds model. Instead of buyers hunting through thousands of ads, buyers say what they want — and sellers with a matching car bring them offers.

Why we built it

Buying a used car today usually means weeks of searching. Saved searches, the same ads re-listed, cars that turn out to be sold, and weekends spent driving across town to inspect something that doesn't match the photos.

Selling isn't much better. Private sellers pay to advertise, field calls from tyre-kickers and lowballers, and wait for the right buyer to stumble across their ad.

The buyer already knows exactly what they want. Why not tell the sellers?

We started with PropOffer, a buyer-first property marketplace where buyers post their requirements and sellers respond. CarOffer brings the same idea to cars.

Buyers post the make, model, year, kilometres and budget they want. Private sellers and dealers who have a matching car send an offer. The buyer compares offers and contacts only the sellers they're interested in.

What's broken

Car classifieds weren't
built around
the buyer.

i.

Thousands of ads to wade through

Buyers do all the work — filtering, re-checking and chasing listings that are already gone.

ii.

Wasted inspections

Cars that don't match the ad, sellers who don't reply, and test drives that go nowhere.

iii.

Sellers waiting to be found

Sellers pay to advertise and hope the right buyer happens to search at the right time.

iv.

Your number everywhere

Posting an ad or enquiring often means your phone number ends up with strangers and spammers.

Our mission is
simple — let the car
come to you.

On CarOffer, buyers post what they want and sellers compete to offer it. You can still browse cars for sale the traditional way — but you don't have to.

Buyer contact details stay private. Sellers send offers through CarOffer, and the buyer decides who to contact.

For sellers, it means skipping the wait: find a buyer who has already said they want a car like yours, and at what price.

What we stand for

Built on principles,
not commissions.

⚖️

Fairness

Buyers post for free. Sellers pay a simple flat fee — never a commission on the sale price.

🔒

Privacy

Buyers' email and phone are never shown to sellers. You choose who to talk to.

🛡️

Safety

Every listing and request is reviewed before it goes live, and we encourage PPSR checks on every car.

🙋

People first

A real team reviews every request and listing — not just an algorithm.

⚡

Simplicity

Post what you want in under 2 minutes. No lengthy forms, no confusing dashboards.

🇦🇺

Built in Melbourne for Australian buyers and sellers.
